Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a roll-up flexible display apparatus that has a main body, a flexible display screen, and electric magnets. The screen can roll out from the main body. The magnets are positioned at the edges of the screen and create a magnetic force to stiffen the screen. However, the middle of the screen may be too flexible, making it difficult to touch. The technical effect of the patent is to address this issue and create a more flexible, yet easy-to-use, roll-up flexible display apparatus.

Problems solved by technology

However, the middle of the flexible display screen may be too flexible thus making touch operation difficult.

Embodiment Construction

[0011]Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0012]FIGS. 1-3 show a flexible display apparatus 100 of the embodiment. The flexible display apparatus 100 includes a main body 10, a flexible display mechanism 30, and a supporting mechanism 50. The flexible display mechanism 30 and the supporting mechanism 50 are capable of extending or unrolling from the main body 10, thus the supporting mechanism 50 is arranged under the flexible display mechanism 30 for supporting.

[0013]The main body 10 includes a casing 11 and a fixing shaft 19 (as shown in FIG. 4). The casing 11 is a hollow cylinder. The casing 11 defines a slot 12 about a length direction of the casing 11 and two blind holes 13 (as shown in FIG. 3). The blind holes 13 are arranged at two opposite bottom surfaces of the slot 12. The fixing shaft 19 is coaxial with the casing 11 and rotatably fixed in the casing 11. The casing 11 further includes a static display portion 15 ...

Abstract

A flexible display apparatus comprises a main body with a casing and a slot, a flexible portion, and a supporting portion. The flexible display portion is received in the casing, and is capable of rolling out from the main body from the slot. The supporting portion is surrounding the main body and capable of unfolding with respect to the main body. While the flexible display portion is rolled out of the casing and being straightened, the supporting portion is straightened under the flexible display portion for supporting the flexible display portion.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present disclosure relates to flexible display apparatuses.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Roll-up flexible display apparatuses include a main body, a flexible display screen, and a plurality of electric magnets. The flexible display screen rolled in the main body is capable of rolling out from the main body. The electric magnets are arranged at two opposite edges of the flexible display screen along the rolling direction. When powering the flexible display apparatus, each of two adjacent electric magnets generates a magnetic force for stiffening the two opposite edges of the rolled-out flexible display screen. However, the middle of the flexible display screen may be too flexible thus making touch operation difficult.[0005]Therefore, there is room for improvement in the art.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURE[0006]The components of the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustr...
